KazParC
Kazakh Parallel Corpus (KazParC) is a parallel corpus designed for machine translation across Kazakh, English, Russian, and Turkish. The first and largest publicly available corpus of its kind, KazParC contains a collection of 372,164 parallel sentences covering different domains and developed with the assistance of human translators.
Data Sources and Domains
The data sources include
- proverbs and sayings
- terminology glossaries
- phrasebooks
- literary works
- periodicals
- language learning materials, including the SCoRE corpus by Chujo et al. (2015)
- educational video subtitle collections, such as QED by Abdelali et al. (2014)
- news items, such as KazNERD (Yeshpanov et al., 2022) and WMT (Tiedemann, 2012)
- TED talks
- governmental and regulatory legal documents from Kazakhstan
- communications from the official website of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan
- United Nations publications
- image captions from sources like COCO
The sources are categorised into five broad domains:

Synthetic Corpus
To make our parallel corpus more extensive, we carried out web crawling to gather a total of 1,797,066 sentences from English-language websites. These sentences were then automatically translated into Kazakh, Russian, and Turkish using the Google Translate service. We refer to this collection of data as 'SynC' (Synthetic Corpus).

Data Splits
KazParC
We first created a test set by randomly selecting 250 unique and non-repeating rows from each of the sources outlined in Data Sources and Domains. The remaining data were divided into language pairs, following an 80/20 split, while ensuring that the distribution of domains was maintained within both the training and validation sets.

KazParC files
- File "01" contains the original, unprocessed text data for the four languages considered within KazParC.
- Files "02" through "19" represent pre-processed texts divided into language pairs for training (Files "02" to "07"), validation (Files "08" to "13"), and testing (Files "14" to "19"). Language pairs are indicated within the filenames using two-letter language codes (e.g., kk_en).
SynC files
- File "20" contains raw, unprocessed text data for the four languages.
- Files "21" to "32" contain pre-processed text divided into language pairs for training (Files "21" to "26") and validation (Files "27" to "32") purposes.
Data Fields
In both "01" and "20", each line consists of specific components:
id
: the unique line identifierkk
: the sentence in Kazakhen
: the sentence in Englishru
: the sentence in Russiantr
: the sentence in Turkishdomain
: the domain of the sentence
For the other files, the fields are:
id
: the unique line identifiersource_lang
: the source language codetarget_lang
: the target language codedomain
: the domain of the sentencepair
: the language pair
How to Use
To load the subsets of KazParC separately:
from datasets import load_dataset
kazparc_raw = load_dataset("issai/kazparc", "kazparc_raw")
kazparc = load_dataset("issai/kazparc", "kazparc")
sync_raw = load_dataset("issai/kazparc", "sync_raw")
sync = load_dataset("issai/kazparc", "sync")
